Voltage Sag Detection Method Based on Wavelet Information

Article Preview

Abstract:

Voltage sag is the major power quality problem and receives wide attention. Although wavelet analysis works well for detecting voltage sag features, the existence of noise can reduce the advantages of wavelet method or even make it ineffective. To solve the problem, the paper uses multi-scale wavelet information by multiplying the results of several scales, and then searches the local maxima from the product to find the transition moment of voltage sag. The proposed method can suppress the noise and improve the accuracy for detecting voltage sag features. Simulation result validates the effectiveness of the proposed method.
